The Carnival dancers are such a vital part of any carnival, whether it's in Rio, Mardi Gras or even Notting Hill Carnival in my home town of London. Once you see them, you know it's time to party.

Jax Jones

Everything being a constant carnival, there is no carnival left.

Victor Hugo

The only person that ever stumbles is a guy moving forward. You don't stumble backwards; you stumble forward, and you never stumble when you're stationary. So don't worry about stumbling. Keep pushing it forward.

James Carville

You can't stumble upon something new and wonderful if you don't have time to stumble.

Janet Echelman

Society is like a crowd in carnival costumes with everyone fearful that others will see through his disguise.

Vernon Howard

The night was full of horrors, and he thought he knew how Christ must have felt as he walked through the world, like a psychiatrist through a ward full of nuts.

Joseph Heller

Wherefore, if meat causeth my brother to stumble, I will eat no flesh for evermore, that I cause not my brother to stumble.

Paul the Apostle

Terry Pratchett

We humans have the capacity to wreak horrors on each other. But we also have the capacity to survive those horrors.

Barry Lyga

A gypsy fire is on the hearth, Sign of the carnival of mirth; Through the dun fields and from the glade Flash merry folk in masquerade, For this is Hallowe'en!

Jerry Smith

People kind of stumble their way through life a lot of times.
